The lower bounds for the a posteriori prediction error of a nonlinear predictor realized as a neural network are provided. These are obtained for a priori adaptation and a posteriori error networks with sigmoid nonlinearities trained by gradient-descent learning algorithms. A contractivity condition is imposed on a nonlinear activation function of a neuron so that the a posteriori prediction error is smaller in magnitude than the corresponding a priori one. Furthermore, an upper bound is imposed on the learning rate η so that the approach is feasible. The analysis is undertaken for both feedforward and recurrent nonlinear predictors realized as neural networks.

In this article we claim that we are going to give a priori and a posteriori error estimates for a Crank Nicolson type scheme. The problem is discretized by the finite elements in space. The main result of this paper consists in establishing two types of error indicators, the first one linked to the time discretization and the second one to the space discretization.

This work deals with the finite element approximation of a prestressed shell model using a new formulation where the unknowns (the displacement and the rotation of fibers normal to the midsurface) are described in Cartesian and local covariant basis respectively. Due to the constraint involved in the definition of the functional space, a penalized version is then considered. We obtain a non robust a priori error estimate of this penalized formulation, but a robust one is obtained for its mixed formulation. Moreover, we present a reliable and efficient a posteriori error estimator of the penalized formulation. Numerical tests are included that confirmthe efficiency of our residual a posteriori estimator.

AbstractIn this paper, we present a divergence-conforming discontinuous Galerkin finite element method for Stokes eigenvalue problems. We prove a priori error estimates for the eigenvalue and eigenfunction errors and present a residual based a posteriori error estimator. The a posteriori error estimator is proven to be reliable and (locally) efficient. We finally present some numerical examples that verify the a priori convergence rates and the reliability and efficiency of the residual based a posteriori error estimator.

This paper discusses spectral and spectral element methods with Legendre-Gauss-Lobatto nodal basis for general 2nd-order elliptic eigenvalue problems. The special work of this paper is as follows. (1) We prove a priori and a posteriori error estimates for spectral and spectral element methods. (2) We compare between spectral methods, spectral element methods, finite element methods and their derivedp-version,h-version, andhp-version methods from accuracy, degree of freedom, and stability and verify that spectral methods and spectral element methods are highly efficient computational methods.
